Wooden Sandals “KOI” by YEVA — a modern reinterpretation of traditional Japanese geta footwear. Each pair is handcrafted from natural wood and painted by hand using eco-friendly, water-based paints, transforming the sandals into a wearable art object with deep philosophical and aesthetic meaning.

Inspired by ancient traditions, these sandals are more than just shoes — they are a path to inner balance, mindfulness, and freedom of self-expression.
Comfortable, lightweight, and transformational — they unite past and present, earth and air, craftsmanship and dream.
YEVA — wear dreams.

These wooden sandals are hand-painted with Japanese koi carp, just like in the KOI collection: https://yeva-design.com/uk-eu/pages/koi

Symbolism:
Koi carp hold powerful meaning in Japanese and Chinese culture. They symbolize strength of spirit, perseverance, and transformation: according to legend, a koi that swam upstream and leapt over a waterfall was transformed into a dragon. Koi are also symbols of luck, love, harmony, courage, and prosperity.

Often depicted in pairs to represent loyalty, koi colors also carry significance:
– Red – love and energy
– Black – overcoming adversity
– Gold – wealth and abundance
– White with red – success and ambition

History:
Geta are traditional Japanese wooden sandals that date back to the Heian period (794–1185). Originally designed for practicality, their elevated soles helped protect feet and garments — such as kimono and tabi socks — from dirt and water.

Over time, geta became a symbol of Japanese culture, with their shape, height, and decoration often reflecting the wearer's social status, profession, or even personality. For example, maiko (apprentice geisha) wore a special type called okobo — tall and heavy, producing a signature ringing sound while walking.

Geta are associated not only with tradition but with mindfulness: walking in them requires presence and balance. Today, they symbolize harmony between body and spirit, and a deep connection to nature and the self.
